The Shinnecock Tribal Nation has bought a piece of land in Hampton Bays after a six-year pursuit. The Nation closed on the sale of an eight-acre piece of vacant land at 13 Indian Rd. in May. It’s next to their 80-acre Westwoods territory that the Nation is developing for a gas station and plaza. They held a ceremony to honor the land and welcome back Shinnecock stewardship. Shinnecock Attorney Tela Troge said that the land has always been a part of the Nation’s ancestral land.
